Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Charles A. Dana Center at The University of Texas at Aust in and education company Agile Mind, Inc. provides a wealthy toolbox of resources to support educators and leaders as they implement the mathematics standards. The website includes information about the standards, a gallery of animations and simulations of key mathematics concepts central to the new standards for middle and high school mathematics,assessment tools and tasks, K-Algebra II scope and sequence samples, and more.
Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, this project aims to build a bank of example rich tasks that illustrate the CCSS-M. It creates a dynamic view of the CCSS-M. You can view only those standards that have examples posted at this time.
This ten-year assessment project, started at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, yields over 300 free and innovative mathematics assessment tasks for grades K-12.
This work out of University of Nottingham, Berkeley and the Shell Centre focuses on implementing rich mathematical experiences for K-12 students through performance assessments. It is built from earlier work with the Balanced Assessment Project, mentioned above. MARS also provides resources for curriculum design.
Funded by the Verizon Thinkfinity program, this NCTM site has been illuminating the standards for over a decade, and it just keeps getting better! From complete units to interactive games and applets to helpful videos, this is a teacher must-have.
The Ohio Resource Center strives to save Ohio teachers time. This site is a well-organized, one-stop shopping experience for various resources aligned to the OACS and more! CCSS-M alignments are coming soon. Only resources of "best practice" or "promising practice," scrutinized by a panel of professionals, are included. Be sure to check out:
The aim of this Cambridge University site is to provide resources designed "to develop subject knowledge, problem-solving and mathematical thinking skills." Check out the wealth of rich task offerings! The Curriculum Maps contain links to task resources that align to content written in simple language.
This is another excellent resource! Funded by Bowland Charitable Trust in the UK, its "materials look very different from most maths teaching materials. They consist of innovative case study problems, each taking 3-5 lessons, designed to develop thinking, reasoning and problem solving skills" for students aged 11-14. The aim is to improve students' confidence in mathematics, while also encouraging new ways of teaching mathematics.
Carl Jones has done it all! As a veteran mathematician and technology guru, he has compiled a wealth of CCSS-M resources. Check out his e-lessons, suggested math videos, rich task resources and grade-level "learning target tabloids," to name a few.
This site has it all! Not only can you find challenging problems of the week and lesson resources, you can get math help in "Ask Dr. Math," join a discussion group, or earn Continuing Education Units with their professional development programs.
Census at School is an international interactive site that has classes enter survey data and then compare their information with random samples taken elsewhere.
Carnegie Learning is a great site to learn new teaching strategies, current educational trends or hear from experts in the math field. FREE math webinars connect you to peers and experts in the field of mathematics education.
